Jackie Chan questioned for empty promise of donation to rebuild school

Jackie Chan always seems to be in the center of the controversies. He had just caused uproar with his Twitter statement of “Support for Filipino Police” post the Manila Incident and became the “Disgrace of Hong Kong” (香港之耻). Now he is questioned for his empty promise of a donation to rebuild Beichuan Middle School after the 2008 Wenchun earthquake.

(Netease) On September 1, 2010, the new Beichuan Middle School is officially open for the new school term. Beichuan middle school was destroyed during the 5.12 Wenchuan earthquake in 2008. Three years later and with the rebuild funding of 200 million yuan entirely donated by various fellow Chinese citizens as well as overseas Chinese, Beichuan Middle School finally hosted the school-opening ceremony on the newly constructed school campus. However the grand opening of Beichuan Middle School again triggered questions towards Hong Kong movie star Jackie Chan’s (promised) donation.

Responsible for the reconstruction of the new Beichuan Middle School, China Overseas Chinese Economic and Cultural Foundation told Shanghai Overseas Chinese Newspaper, “We have not received any donation money which he promised. We also sent a letter to Mr. Chan and asked about his commitment to this charity event, but he has not yet responded.”

The reporter contacted China Overseas Chinese Economic and Cultural Foundation. When the reporter asked “During the may 11, 2009 memorial ceremony, did Jackie Chan ever state that part of the “Little Big Soldier” box office will be donated to the reconstruction of the new Beichuan Middle School?” the other side pondered the question for a moment and answered firmly “Yes.”

Reporter then went on the China Overseas Chinese Economic and Cultural Foundation website and saw the current list of donors to the BeiChuan Middle School project, the contributions are as high as millions and as low as 20 yuan, but Jackie Chan’s name or Chan Kongsheng (his original name) was not found, neither was Beijing Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation.

Not only the students call Jackie Chan “Big Brother”, reporter reviewed the archived video clips, that day (May 11, 2009) on the stage, Beichuan Middle School principal Liu Yachun also politely called Chan “Big brother Jackie Chan”. The reporter phoned Liu Yachun and asked whether Jackie Chan had promised to donate to the school on that day. Liu Yachun muttered for a moment then answered clearly, “Yes, but we never received the money”.

Could it be an anonymous donation? Reporter contacted The Secretary-General of the Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation. She thought about it for a moment and told the reporter, “We did not seem to have donated any money to Beichuan Middle School project.”

After Jackie Chang’s statement of “Support for Filipino Police” on Twitter post the Manila Incident which was heavily criticized by international netizens especially people of Hong Kong, General Manager of Jackie Chan Film Group China office, Yuan Nong’s cell phone became not reachable, and soon the number has been deactivated. According to the “Little Big Soldier” official website, Yuan Nong is the producer of the film and is responsible for Jackie Chan’s charity works.

Lol, he is one of the biggest hypocrites in the Chinese movie industry. There are many things that most Chinese people are aware of but is not published or open to the Western Media.

1. Jackie Chan is a huge pimp, he is the reason why Kira was paid off. Apparently, in the background of some of the sex videos, you could hear girls calling out ‘da ge’ aka ‘big brother’ which is an alias of Jackie.

2. Jackie said himself he only married his wife as an obligation and does not love her.

3. He often criticizes his illegitimate son for no reason and failed to recognize him until he was absolutely forced to.

4. He has been banging Hong Kong celebrities much longer than Edison and probably taught him all he knows.

1. There is no proof whatsoever that this is true. Also one way or the other: are you really telling me that if someone would steal this kind of property from you and threatens to make it publically available, that you would react the same way Edison did?
If you have the money you make him shut up by paying him. It is fairly obvious that Kira should not have done what he has done.

2. He did what he had to do. Thats what they call taking responsibility for your actions.

3. I do not think that anyone besides the direct family has enough insight to argue about this. You do not know any of them, nor how they live together.

4. well thats just an insult dressed as a speculation and sold as a fact. Come back when you can actually proof any of this.

I cannot believe how easy everyone shifts their position due to recent events. How is it that everyone suddenly forgets the good deeds the man has been doing for the past years?
All the recent information on the media everywhere only appeals to the bad side of humanity.
Jackie Chan did not donate money to a school; but on the same he built more than 100 other schools (do not even get me started on his other charity work). Plus, everyone thinking about it should realise that not donating to that particular school can be nothing more than a mistake:
what possible reason would Jackie Chan have not to donate? He once estimated that building a school costs 100.000$.
So after the man already donated millions, do you really think that he would put his reputation on the line just for this?

My Prayers are with the families of the Hong Kong citizens. What happened really was tragic and is unforgivable. I can not even begin to imagine the pain they must go through.

But of course the media is not interested in what Jackie Chan is saying. Every journalist out there knows what Jackie meant by these lines, even all of you know it.
Of course Jackie does not represent all of Hong Kong, but how is everyone able to condemn the good his message stands for?
What about the times Jackie Chan promotes his country and especially Hong Kong?

International experts agree that the actions of the involved policemen were wrong.
Jackie Chan is not an expert on this matter, agreed, but still tried to express the misery every person (policemen or not) is facing in given situation. Ask yourself the same question, what would you do?
How is it he is now that he is put side by side to the people who were not able to help the Hong Kong citizens, even though that was their job?
How is he being made the bad guy here?
If you think about it, in the end Mr Chan is looking at the big picture. If everyone would react the same way the media did, we would be facing a world where there are enemies everywhere. If you have a trouble with someone, you either talk to him and forget about it or you never talk to him again, everything else would only prolong the outcome of above mentioned events.
So instead of thinking about all the little fights, we all should really start to try and put into motion what Mr Chan is telling us since he started doing charity. Try to be a good person, help the ones around you, and the people around you will also help you.

Well Jackie did raise about USD$1.5 million for the Sichuan Earthquake, which is still a work in progress for him, plus he’s donated all kinds of money to many countries educational and infrastructure around Asia. He’s currently focused on the big issue going down in Japan of course.
